There is no room in that in the officials scorers book. The stat people use that for the coaches, media, and whoever else maybe intereseted.

My good friend, the statement that I quoted is DIRECTLY from the NCAA Basketball Statistics Manual. There most certainly are rules that cover statistical information, including assists.
But I will use the word statistician in the future, although we do have scorers in my area that record rebounds.
